[Wall]

great start this...

 

[Creag]

Oh! The first 6...

Got ot see that on the telly. It was so effortless. Just a whip off the pads and almost out the park! Just whoa!

 

[Creag]

Dinesh: "So it was not the 'flat pitches' in India that helped Aussies to score more than 300 in almost all games, in fact it is pathetic Indian bowling that makes it possible for any team on any ground in the world."

Seems that the Indian fans are already starting the bitching

 

[Wall]

is it lightening?

 

[sand_man]

Rain is coming. Biiiiiiig rain!!

 

[DJ...]

Great start, but as we know, that is no indicator of a good final score with this team. Rain needs to bugger off until the first wicket...

Moloy: "Dinesh, that's ridiculous. Indians scored as many and more against the Aussie attack so it doesn't really say much. And the bowling today has not been terrible by any stretch of imagination. Not the best but not terrible."

Rain is coming. Biiiiiiig rain!!

/clears throat
/sings
/Rain, rain, go away and come another day!

Mulelki: " De kock pulls over the down to fine leg... for a single" his voice and tone was suggested he hit it out the park

It was a pretty aggressive and well executed shot...

/thought it was four

No rain yet but it's looking inevitable...

 

[stixx]

I can see the stadium and the clouds from my desk at work

The clouds are building, but doesn't look like the thick menacing black clouds so far this week. Hopefully it will be a quick shower today.

For my edification, I am assuming this influences D/L calculations?

 

[Wall]

This is a very very good start. 92/0 after 18.3

 

[Creag]

Ashwin to de Kock, 1 run, tossed up and he pushes it to the deep on the off side to bring up his fifty!

Well done, lad!

 

[DJ...]

This is incredible to watch...

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Pink is obviously our colour. Green and gold isn't doing it anymore...

 

[Arthur]

Amaazing. 150 up for no wickets, 29 overs. Are we looking at 310?

Woodstock chant: NO rain! No rain!

 

[MickeyD]

WTF does Hashim play that stupid "tickle" shot? Not the first time he's chopped the ball onto his stumps.

 

[Arthur]

They seem to do better when I don't watch. Hash back to the pavilion.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

What the heck was Amla doing there? Gives it away to a nothing ball.
